Photograph of the Rang Mahal, at Rampur in Uttar Pradesh, taken by an unknown photographer, from an album of views of Rampur presented to the India Office by the Festival of Empire in November 1911. The Nawab of Rampur, Hamid Ali Khan (1896-1930), was one of the exhibitors at the Festival of Empire exhibition held at Crystal Palace to mark George V's coronation. The Rang Mahal is part of the Fort-Palace complex in the city which was completely remodelled as part of the extensive building programme carried out by W.C. Wright, the Chief Engineer, under the direction of Hamid Ali Khan. Wright's architecture synthesises elements from Islamic, Hindu and Victorian Gothic, known as 'Indo-Saracenic'.
